Atlanta Breath Test Refusal Defense Attorney

Breath Test Refusals & ALS Hearings in Atlanta

Under Georgia’s Implied Consent law, a driver is required to submit to a chemical test (breath test or blood test) to determine his/her blood alcohol concentration or presence of drugs after a DUI arrest. A breath test refusal will result in the suspension of a person’s driver’s license, regardless of whether or not he/she was actually driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Therefore, you should contact an Atlanta DUI defense lawyer as soon as possible if you have been arrested for DUI and were accused of refusing to take a breathalyzer test, blood test or urine test. It is important to act quickly, as a lawyer will be more effective when involved as early on in the DUI process as possible.

A breath test refusal will begin administrative license suspension proceedings. A driver is best off working with an experienced Atlanta DUI attorney who can provide aggressive defense at an ALS hearing and help the driver keep his/her driving privileges. To do this, the attorney must prove that it is more than likely true that the arresting officer did not have probable cause to believe the defendant was under the influence, the defendant was not arrested properly, the defendant was not informed of the consequences of refusing a breath test or blood test, or that the defendant did not actually refuse to take the test.
